Notation: == hold note for this long X mute strings & crunch 'em

It's hard to write down the timing of the crunching correctly, but if
you listen to the recording you should be able to figure it out.... :)

Lyrics:
you stay
silent, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
you stay
silent, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
sleep here
hoping, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
and i'm waiting when i return to her i find
and i'm waiting flowers of evil in my mind
and i'm waiting dancing with fire on the edge
and i'm waiting remembering all of what she said
and i'm waiting hoping the rains will wash away
and i'm waiting hoping a guide will show the way
and i'm waiting dancing with fire on the edge
and i'm waiting remembering all of what she said
with this fire in the head...
sleep here
hoping, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
this is the way, step inside...
------------------------------
Hope this is of some help :)
